November 18, 2007 Day 213
Today I focused on yellows to reds in my drawing, finding a pattern of encircling lines with a seed-like shape at the core:
Drawing #218 12" x 9"
I still didn't like canvas #25, feeling that it had lost whatever charm it originally had. I forgot to photograph it before beginning to paint today, however, so this is the final version after today's painting session ended. I was happy with it at that point.
Canvas #25 36" x 36"
Next I tackled canvas #27, using black, white, and burnt umber right from the tube. I liked what I had when I finished, but later decided it was too static. (Unfortunately, I again forgot to photograph the canvas at this stage and painted over it.)
We went out and bought new cell phones yesterday, since we never found Adrian's and I was eligible for a new phone on my contract. We got a "chaperone" system so that I can track Adrian next time he is lost in the woods. At least, theoretically I should be able to. And of course, he needs to have the phone with him and turned on.
(Note: There is a gap between the dates I'm writing and posting in order to give me time to get ahead.)
